RE: 14 Bolt Head Exhaust Gaskets

Your engine did not come with gaskets originally on the exhaust. Fel Pro makes one for this application but you will be better off installing the manifolds with no gasket. Use a thin coat of Silicone RTV sealant on the clean oil free bare metal mating surface and torque the bolts as per the shop manual. Hi temp RTV is unnecessary but wouldn't hurt, I use the black regular grade and it has never failed. Wipe off the stuff that squezes out before it dries for a factory stock appearance.

Good Luck,
